What reading level is Chinese Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


While banners streamed, and ox-tails flew, We sought the prey on distant Gaou.
Each with full team, the princes came, A lengthened train in bright array.
In gold-wrought slippers, knee-caps red, They looked as on an audience day.
Each right thumb wore the metal guard; On the left arm its shield was bound. In unison the arrows flew ; The game lay piled upon the ground.
The leaders of the tawny teams Sped on their course, direct and true.
The drivers perfect skill displayed ; Like blow well aimed
... each arrow flew.
i73 I 7 4 THE SHI-KING Neighing and pleased, the steeds returned; The bannered lines back slowly came. No jostling rude disgraced the crowd; The king declined large share of game.
So did this famous hunt proceed !
So free it was from clamorous sound! Well does our King become his place, And high the deeds his reign have crowned!
The King's Anxiety for His Morning Levee How goes the night? For heavy morning sleep 111 suits the king who men would loyal keep. The courtyard, ruddy with the torch's light, Proclaims unspent the deepest hour of night.
